Who wants to take the civil service exam after being reborn?

Chapter 599 showcases the charm of language

After having dinner at the company cafeteria and lingering in the office for a while, Zheng Weizhong asked the driver to prepare the car for him to go home.

Zheng Weizhong is a diligent leader, a consensus within the group, because he devotes a lot of energy to his work.

Of course, a diligent and strict leader is not necessarily a leader that subordinates like.

After getting out of the car at the entrance of Park Hyatt Residence, Zheng Weizhong was still thinking about the "reply to the message on his WeChat Moments" and the issue of "10,000 customized machines".

Upon opening the door, he found his wife, Li Xianglan, sitting on the sofa in the living room.

On the glass coffee table in front of me was a cup of tea that had long since gone cold, the tea leaves sinking to the bottom like a lump of solidified ink.

She heard the noise and looked up.

Leaders like Zheng Weizhong have developed a keen sixth sense through years of experience in the workplace, and he immediately sensed that something was wrong with his wife.

However, he did not ask any questions. Instead, he changed his shoes and prepared to go back to the bathroom to wash up.

"I saw Chen Zhe today."

Li Xianglan suddenly spoke up.

Zheng Weizhong paused, as he had just been thinking about Chen Zhe.

This guy is really something, managing to get a middle-aged couple who have nothing to say to each other to hold "meetings" for him time and time again.

"and then?"

Zheng Weizhong sounded somewhat displeased.

Work was already stressful enough, and now we had to discuss it at home. Judging from his wife's expression, she didn't seem to be on his side either.

He said the company's business was being hampered, leading to stagnation.

Li Xianglan looked at her husband and said slowly, "But he doesn't think it's a problem with the person, but rather a difference between two correct ideas. Xiao Chen is capable; he didn't say a bad word even when he was wronged for no reason, and instead always maintained the company's reputation..."

"All right!"

Zheng Weizhong interrupted him directly: "I know very well what his abilities are, but..."

Zheng Weizhong paused for a moment.

If Chen Zhe could describe his initial attack on the reply as "feeling wronged for no reason," then he could say that he was wronged.

What now?
Where is it "strangling"?

At most, it's just "catching the tail"!

If they don't crack down on him, he's already on the path to dominating the "instant messaging software market".

"The problem between us is not what you think."

Zheng Weizhong could probably guess that in his wife's imagination, Su Hui was a private enterprise that she had suppressed to the point of being unable to move forward.

In reality, they countered each move and even retaliated. Today, they unleashed two "new sword techniques" that even I couldn't defend against.

"If you're included..."

Zheng Weizhong glanced at his wife and thought to himself, "This is Chen Zhe's third move."

It must be said that President Zheng's IQ is always on point; he saw through Chen's petty cleverness at a glance.

However, sometimes, even if you see through it, you still feel angry, which is the result Chen wanted to see.

Seeing that her husband had no intention of reconciliation, Li Xianglan didn't intend to force him, much less engage in a hysterical argument. Instead, she earnestly reminded him:
"Business feuds must not affect Yu Xuan; she has exams coming up soon."

"Stop worrying about useless things. Would I target a junior?"

Zheng Weizhong said irritably.

His wife meant that they shouldn't make a fuss about Yu Xian and use it to affect Chen Zhe's emotions.

Zheng Weizhong felt that he was a leader who had received years of Party education, so how could he stoop so low as to lay a hand on a junior?
Li Xianglan stood up. The "meeting" was not entirely successful, which was to be expected.

While the nanny came to clear away the tea tray and cups, Li Xianglan opened her mouth, but then sighed and said:
"Old Zheng, even if you win this fight in the end, so what? In the eyes of many uninformed people, you're playing a less-than-honorable role... Of course, you probably don't care about that anyway."

"Mind your own business!"

Zheng Weizhong seemed to be provoked by these words. A hint of barely suppressed anger flashed across his usually calm face. He slammed the door and went back to his bedroom.

After simply washing his face, Zheng Weizhong calmed down and regained his composure.

Actually, his wife was right. His initial motivation for replying to the letter was more for his political image.

Considering Wang Guohua's ambiguous attitude that might change, the aggressive development trend in his reply, and the opinions of the "Zhongda Gang" who have never given up lobbying, as well as the opinions of local leaders in eastern Guangdong.

Now, family problems have to be added to the mix.

Zheng Weizhong could clearly feel the pressure on his shoulders accumulating little by little.

……

The next day, Chen visited Wang Xiaochu, the head of the telecommunications group, as planned.

Compared to China Mobile and China Unicom, which had been deeply involved in the mobile business for many years, China Telecom, which had just been restructured in 2008, was about to transform from a pure fixed-line operator into a full-service operator.

Furthermore, it also has to catch up with the other two companies that have accumulated more than a decade of experience in base station construction, which makes the task extremely difficult.

The main issue is perception. In consumers' minds, the brand labels of China Telecom are "landline telephone" and "broadband". When it comes to mobile communication services, they think of those two companies, and it is even less likely that any mobile phone manufacturer would be willing to cooperate with China Telecom.

Therefore, the 10,000 customized mobile phones that Chen sent at this time were like sending charcoal in snowy weather.

In contrast to Lu Yimin, who only assigned a vice president to dine with Chen Zhe, Wang Xiaochu personally joined in, toasting and exchanging drinks with Chen Zhe.

Chen Zhe also knew that compared to the arrogant China Mobile and China Unicom, the gap that China Telecom had in this field was more suitable for him to enter.

Therefore, he also gave a rather brilliant suggestion, which is a subsidy bundled model of "installing broadband and giving away mobile phones".

Since the telecommunications industry's strengths lie in broadband and landline services, it should use its strong business to support them. These 10,000 Youmi phones are a good option to try.

Mr. Wang was quite moved and patted Chen on the shoulder: "It's not that we at the telecommunications company don't have money, it's just that we lack resources, methods, and the key to break through this situation."

"Mr. Chen is the first mobile phone manufacturer to trust us."

Wang Xiaochu probably also had the idea of ​​"spending a fortune to buy a horse's bones" in mind, and said: "We don't want you to give it away for free. We'll buy these 10,000 units at the market price of Youmi, and we'll all work together to mitigate the risk!"

The initial market price for Yumi is set at around 4000 yuan, but Chen plans to lower it further when it is officially released.

Even at 3500 yuan, 10,000 units would still amount to 35 million yuan, which is a huge income.

but!

Chen refused.

Once I've taken the money, how can I expect you to owe me a favor?

Do I need an order for 10,000 units?

Do not!
What I need is your order for one million units!

Chen smiled slightly and began to showcase the charm of language:

"Mr. Wang, we can't accept the money."

“We are not here today to be suppliers, but to join our comrades and find our kindred spirits. Although the telecommunications industry is facing many challenges, I see in General Manager Wang and other leaders a determination to fight to the death and a broad future.”

"So these 10,000 mobile phones are like bullets for our comrades-in-arms. How can we charge money for ammunition?! In fact, we are really looking forward to the first battle being fought beautifully, brilliantly, and with great success under the leadership of General Manager Wang!"

I wanted to say something when I saw Wang Xiaochu.

Chen quickly raised his Moutai: "This glass is for you, and for the telecommunications company! I'll drink it all, you can drink as you please!"

This is completely different from the situation during Lu Yimin's meeting, which was full of calculations.

Director Chen used words full of revolutionary spirit, such as "comrades-in-arms," ​​"ammunition," and "fighting," to make Wang Xiaochu feel that this was not a business partner, but a strategic partner who "understands me and supports me."

"I won't go into more details."

This time, Wang Xiaochu did not refuse again; he was also very eloquent.
"Mr. Chen, I'll drink this glass of wine."

"But this doesn't mean a business deal is done, but rather the beginning of a friendship forged through shared struggle."

"We in the telecommunications industry will never forget our comrades who climbed the hills together. Looking back on our most difficult times, those who chose to believe in us, I believe the market will also reward those who forge ahead with the greatest rewards!"

"Ding!"

The crisp sound of glasses clinking together is like the clear, resonant ringing of a promise kept.
